Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a device for removing an elongated bone (18) from a piece of neat (16), comprising means for conveying the piece of meat in succession through: one or more processing stations (24, 26) where the meat is scraped away from the bone, at right angles to the lengthwise direction of the bone, until a certain part of the bone surface is exposed, apart from a narrow connection between the meat and the bone, while the meat removed is guided away from the bone; a processing station where the above-mentioned narrow connection is broken. In a first processing station (22) a separation may be made along the length of the bone (18) through the meat (16) up to the bone. Preferably a second and third processing station (24; 26) each comprise two first helical rollers (28, 30; 54, 56) with ribs with opposite pitch and rotating in opposite directions to each other, the helical rollers (28, 30; 54, 56) being disposed parallel to and on either side of the path of the bone (18).
